Who needs a 3rd rows? I can't help but wonder which families in the North America are having 5 kids these days and actually need a 7 seater?! The average number of kids per family in 2020 in the United States is 1.93. In Canada, the average number of children per family is 1.1. In fact in China, the average number of children per family was 1.18 in 2020. India reports an average of 2.22 children per family. So if we assume the average family is having 1 - 2 kids, why would the auto industry be so focused on 7 seaters? OH yeah it's just marketing bigger and more expensive and more profitable SUV's that no one actually needs Of all the 3 row SUV's that are being sold, I would love to see actual stats regarding how many buyers actually use the third row! I would much rather have a smaller SUV with 5 seats, more fuel efficient, and ultimately more cargo room! That's plenty for 99% of the families out there!!!!
@@foryt actually your family is included in the average...that's why it is an average...lol. What percentage of the people you know have more that 3 kids?
@@mikepetrilli4686 maybe I am looking at it wrong but more vehicles seats 5. And we are a family of 6 so that's outside of us. We live in the south so there are a lot of families with 4+ kids here. In the city it's different with around 1 or 2 kids per household.
@@foryt You really don't understand what an average is do you? How many SUVs are being sold as 7 seaters vs the families that actually need them? How many of those SUVs are sold to families with 4 or more kids? As far as larger families in rural vs urban areas...I don't know how you came to that conclusion! There have been mini vans available from Toyota, dodge, kia, Honda and others for decade's. For the vast minority of families with 5 kids, get a cheaper, more fuel efficient, more practical mini van. Don't drink the manufacturers Kool Aid by buying overpriced SUV that aren't really SUVs at all!
I think this is the best list out there, Toyota is indeed the most budget friendly among other brands for its quality and efficiency
The 2nd generation Toyota Sequoia TRD Pro, simply the best
What about Volvo XC90?

Average is just that, an average. I have 4 kids, family of 6. So our family is not included in this "average"
